Unstable 8 #28 October 30, 2003 This isnt' the first time I"ve heard of this turn to the story. Didn't The History Channel do a Documentary about this not horribly long ago??! Well, from all of the accounts i've read and understand, this is probably the simplist, most feasable, and most likely case. Well, regardless, the real DB Cooper is either off scoot free or dead. =========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoShitThereIWas 0 #32 November 2, 2003 Okay, that makes sense now but I think I heard it was actually the 21st of Nov? I could be wrong though. At the time of reading this post I was confused was it his Birthday or Anniversary. Duh, it wouldn't have been his birthday because then he would be way too young, but I had this discussion with someone in Rantoul with the same B-Day and heard the DB Cooper story for the first time after 7 years in the sport with all kinds of "characters".

I am unaware of the source of your information, but if Cooper was still alive and caught he has already been convicted. Before the statute of limitations ran out they did this legal thing that stopped him from escaping punishment. You will find this information in the book called "Norjax" by Ralph Himmelsbach. It is the only accurate accounting of the incident and search for Cooper and the aftermath. There were some liberties taken but far fewer than in other accountings which have all been speculation.Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
